After saying that, he immediately stood up.
"I'll go back with you!"
Shangguan Lingxiu didn't ask anything and just spoke.
"I miss grandma too..."
"Okay. Then let's go as we say."
At Yun Yang's current level of cultivation, the obstacle between the two realms is no longer an insurmountable chasm. He only needs to find a place where the two realms are relatively close to each other and travel between the two realms.
Coincidentally, Yun Yang knew this kind of place very well, and the land of sacred bones was exactly this kind of place!
Yun Yang made arrangements, and soon he and Shangguan Lingxiu broke through the space and left the Jiuzun Hall.
However, on this way back, Yun Yang kept thinking about a problem.
According to my level of cultivation, if I want to travel between the two realms, I can do it when I am promoted to the realm of the Saint King. But why have I never made the trip and taken action? !
Probably... What I fear most is not a life-and-death fight or a mortal crisis. What I fear most... is the emotion that arises from the situation!
The clouds and mist passed by slowly.
Yun Yang walked forward with a confused and sad look on his face.
When can I... resurrect you... and reunite with you!
…
It's been a long time since Yun Xiaoyao was sitting alone in the backyard of Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion. Just like Yun Yang, he was sitting quietly under the plum tree, in the pavilion, with a tea table in front of him, a pot of clear tea, and a wisp of sandalwood. His expression was indifferent, neither sad nor happy.
Yun Xiaoyao would sit here now when he had nothing to do. When he was in the mood, he might even get two side dishes and drink them by himself until midnight, or from midnight until dawn.
As the number one expert in Tianxuan Continent today, there are very few things worth paying attention to in this matter. Naturally, there is no need to work as hard as before, and there is no need to run around here and there.
The Yutang Empire, which unified the world and brought peace to the world, was in the stage of cultivation and growth. Except for the northern grasslands that were still slightly unstable, and the occasional scattered remnants in the newly conquered areas of the empire, the world was basically at peace, and the seas and rivers were clear. .
Therefore, in the past few years, Yun Xiaoyao really rarely goes out.
But since he doesn't like to socialize or lively, and hates being disturbed by outsiders, the only thing he likes to do is to sit quietly at home, sit here and let the situation outside change.
Especially in the past six months, Yun Xiaoyao has not even left the house.
I haven’t even been to the palace for a long time.
Even when His Majesty the Emperor came to visit occasionally, Yun Xiaoyao would say a few words and then become silent, remaining silent until the Emperor left on his own.
This situation probably happened after Yun Xiaoyao had a conflict with the emperor more than a year ago. When the emperor came again, Yun Xiaoyao directly refused to see him. This happened again and again, and over time, His Majesty the Emperor simply stopped coming.
Most of the people in the government and the public were only the old commanders such as Qiu Jianhan. Occasionally, they would come over and sit quietly with Yun Xiaoyao for a while, but it was difficult to find anything to talk about. After sitting for a while, they would leave. Most of them would say goodbye when saying goodbye. A sigh.
Lao Mei, who was waiting on the side, was also sighing in her heart.
If there is no one who knows Prince Yun Xiaoyao Yun best in this world, it is this old man.
He watched the prince pouring himself a drink with a distant look, without saying a word, just because he knew that any words he said were in vain. The prince was missing his son, but no one could let the prince see his son who had gone to other worlds.
So he didn't say anything and just waited quietly.
After all, there is no telling when the current deadlock in Tianxuan Continent will be broken.
…
It is said that since Yun Yang was so majestic and left the Tianxuan Continent, not long after he landed in the upper world, the Emperor of the Yutang Empire appointed the crown prince Yu Qiankun as the crown prince. However, within a year or two, he continued to delegate power to the crown prince. Sun, later simply became the emperor's grandson who supervised the country; His Majesty the Emperor himself no longer cared much about things.
It can be seen that this emperor, who has been busy all his life, is getting old and wants to rest. If Jade Qiankun was not too young, it would not be unusual for him to abdicate directly and become the Supreme Emperor.
However, at this time, the turmoil broke out again, and the Nine Gods Cult suddenly appeared among the people.
The Nine Gods of Yutang are famous all over the world, and Yunzun of Yutang is a myth of this world, no different from a living god; and this sect, through the name of Yunzun, regards Yunzun as the highest spiritual belief of the religion, and vigorously develops followers, only for a short period of time. In just over half a year, the territory of the Yutang Empire had been covered.
Following this, a saying gradually emerged that was never welcomed by the upper echelons of the Yutang Empire: the divine right of imperial power!
Without gods, there would be no royal family. Master Yun Zun is a god, and Master Jiu Zun is a god.
As for the Yutang Empire, it was only with Lord Yun Zun’s unswerving help that it could achieve its great cause.
This leads to a theory: divine power is greater than imperial power.
This theory quickly became deeply rooted in people's minds due to the many deeds of the Nine Gods in saving and protecting the world, and the battle between divine power and imperial power gradually began.
There is no doubt that the Nine Lords have extremely high majesty in the Yutang Empire, and even in the whole world. This was originally the fundamental reason why the Yutang Empire was able to stand firm despite being besieged from all sides. This point cannot be obliterated by anyone. !
But... at the beginning of the creation of the Nine Zuns, especially the first of the nine Earth Zuns, he was directly the eldest prince of the Yutang Empire. The four Water Zuns were the wives of the Earth Zuns, and the current crown prince of the Yutang Empire is their only bloodline. There is Yun Yang, who is also the only son of Yun Xiaoyao, the prince of the Yutang Empire. Therefore, it can be said that the original intention of establishing the Jiuzun was to work hard for the Yutang Empire. Even if it doesn't sound good, it is the fact!
Later, there were many changes. Once all the nine deities were wiped out, only Yun Zun remained. He single-handedly propped up the crumbling Yutang Empire. However, Yun Yang did not hesitate to spend money and help at all costs. Apart from his patriotism, his original intention was In addition, there is also a considerable degree of friendship between the nine gods, but there is no theory of divine power. Although Yun Yang finally ascended to the upper world, to Tianxuan Continent, he is already a human legend.
But no one believes the above, or most people don’t want to believe it. People are more willing to believe that the Nine Masters are gods who come to save the common people and bring peace to Tianxuan. They are not limited to one family. surname!
After all, this is what the public wants!
As Yun Xiaoyao, the number one expert in the Yutang Empire and even the entire Tianxuan Continent, whether in public or private life, he was directly or indirectly involved in the matter, and naturally he did his best to search for the leader of the Jiuzun Sect with swords all over the world.
Unexpectedly, no matter how hard Yun Xiaoyao searched, he couldn't find it.
Even if Yun Xiaoyao activated official forces, personal friends, and so many forces to intervene, it would still be to no avail and in vain.
On the contrary, it shows that the mystery of the Jiuzun Sect has reached a terrifying level.
This situation surprised Yun Xiaoyao.
There must be a ghost in this!
As the divine right of kings became more and more popular, the imperial power was unwilling to be left behind and naturally had to fight. The first thing to do in the counterattack was... to destroy all nine temples in the entire continent and then issue an edict.
There is no doubt that the nine deities have made great contributions to the country and the people, but they all belong to the Yutang Royal Family. They have just undergone special training and have some abilities that are beyond ordinary people.
However, in the final analysis, they are just royal subjects, not some human myth, and gods are alive.
And this decision and the appearance of this notice made Yun Xiaoyao, who was searching for the whereabouts of the Jiuzun Sect with his sword, furious, and directly terminated the operation!
He returned to Beijing at starry night and met with the emperor overnight; but the emperor expressed his helplessness over the matter.
The situation has evolved so much that it is impossible to allow the Jiu Zun Sect to amplify the situation wantonly, otherwise it will only cause trouble. After all, according to the current situation, I am afraid that within a few years, the Jiu Zun Sect will be able to sweep the entire world; by then, it will be a disaster. I'm not sure who has the final say.
How can the royal family sit still and wait for death? Of course, they must take active actions!
Sealing the deeds of the nine deities, demolishing the temples, and then the royal family creating public opinion throughout the continent and guiding the people to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic is currently the most effective response method and the most immediate method.
But Yun Xiaoyao firmly disagreed with this approach, and that night, the two brothers broke up unhappy.
The royal actions were still planned in an orderly manner; temples were destroyed and public opinion was spread; the nine statues were just the words of the royal family generals, which became very popular for a while.
Although the Jiu Zun Sect is trying its best to fight against the royal family's statement, no matter how mysterious it is, after all, it has just emerged and is not even in the ascendant. After losing the foundation of its argument, it is just like scattered sand. How can it be compared with the forces of the world? The power of a state machine is gradually weakening and gradually becoming ineffective...
Seeing the momentum, the royal family immediately released a biography book called "The Legend of the Nine Legends"; it recorded the story of how the Nine Legends and others were secretly selected by the royal family at the beginning, including arduous training and layer-by-layer screening, starting from the very beginning. More than a thousand people eliminated most of them, leaving only nine who had successfully trained...
After that, he naturally began to accept royal orders, go out to perform missions, rush thousands of miles to the battlefield, and overturn dangerous battle situations... All kinds of missions are basically real events that happened in the past, and everyone feels that they are familiar with them...
These past events refer to the achievements made by the nine deities in the past. They are all real and not fake. Although the so-called growth path is conjecture, it is not far from reality. However, because of the addition of a royal coordinator, the arrangement The mission, commanding the battle, caused the Jiuzun's position to change and its nature to be completely different.
As "The Legend of the Nine Legends" spread across the country, the original prestige of the Nine Legends has inevitably declined greatly. Many people have a self-awareness: It turns out that this is the case, the Nine Legends are just under the instructions of the royal family. , the really powerful one is the Yutang royal family...
Although the role of the Nine Deities is great, in the final analysis it is just a god-making movement implemented at the national level; the entire country of Yutang transformed the Nine Deities into gods...
The fact that this matter is being exposed now is just because the Jiu Zun Sect has appeared, intending to use the deeds of these heroes to disturb people's hearts and thereby endanger national security. The official plan is to make the facts public, and thus let the people know that the so-called Jiu Zun Protecting the World, and even all its actions, are led and fall within the normal scope... In the final analysis, they are just national soldiers performing their tasks normally, nothing more...
But the situation has evolved to this point, and more than 90% of the great achievements of the Nine Lords have been wiped out.
The Nine Gods are no longer myths in the world, and even the talk of heroes has gradually stopped. What is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people is the state machine!
At this point, the momentum of the Jiu Zun Sect has been completely curbed; however, fewer and fewer people worship the Jiu Zun.
"It's just a few war machines..."
"Actually, we are all generals in the army just like you and me, but the division of labor is different."
There are more and more comments like this.
"Looking back at the past, some of the wars that Jiuzun participated in back then were clearly late on purpose... Otherwise, how could he have shown his heroic power to turn the tide? Many soldiers died in pity. ah… "
"Hey... In that battle that year, if Jiuzun had gone one step earlier, my brother would not have to die, and I would not be disabled. It turns out that this is the truth, this is the truth... "
The change in the direction of the wind became more and more intense, and gradually got out of control. The nine statues gradually changed from being worshiped by the whole people, and being like gods, to actually starting to change in the direction of the smelly street... The curses gradually started to sound...
At first, people would scold someone for scolding, but later on, I don’t know why, and more and more people scolded me...
The psychology of the people is actually very strange. When a person is regarded as a hero by others and listens to their legends every day, even if I don’t know them, even if I have no contact with them... But I still praise him, respect him, and worship him, and others are in front of me. You can't even scold him.
But if others are scolding this person, then even if I don't understand, don't know, aren't familiar with, don't know, don't know everything about that person... it doesn't stop me from scolding him too. Although I don’t know anything, when I curse, it can make everyone feel that I know everything...
Slowly, the Nine Lords stink, especially Yun Zun. After all, he is the last one among the Nine Lords and the only survivor!
More assumptions and more malice must of course be linked to him!
Ever since, about a year and a half ago, the Yun Zun statue that stood in Tiantang Square was the last remaining Yun Zun statue in the entire capital. The last statue, which was strictly protected by the military, could not withstand the tide. angry people.
"Tear down the statue of Lord Yun!"
"This despicable man has lied to us for so many years!"
"It was him who caused countless innocent people to die in vain just to create his own myth!"
"Push it down! Push it down! It must be pushed down!"
Somehow, a flood of people poured into the square, carrying hammers, sticks, axes... Countless people went crazy, smashing down the dozens of feet tall Yunzun statue bit by bit, and finally collapsed.
Then the angry crowd smashed the toppled statue to pieces!
That day.
Yun Xiaoyao, Qiu Jianhan, Leng Daoyin, Fang Qingtian, Mrs. Shangguan, etc... all rushed to the scene in full gear. If they wanted to stop or take action, all of these hundreds of thousands of people would be killed by Yun Xiaoyao. Kill here...
But when he saw those inexplicably crazy people, Yun Xiaoyao, who had the most reason to take action, did not take action.
He just glanced at Qiu Jianhan with cold lightning eyes; Qiu Jianhan's white hair shone and shook his head sadly; Yun Xiaoyao looked at Fang Qingtian and Leng Daoyin again, they shook their heads in shame, lowered their heads, and finally looked at Shangguan Old lady, the old lady snorted coldly and turned around.
Finally, Yun Xiaoyao turned his cold gaze towards the imperial city.
He watched with cold eyes as the people poured in, watched the agitation and shouting slogans of the thoughtful people, and then tens of thousands of people became excited, crazy, and cursed...
Watching the statue of his son being smashed with clanking sounds, watching the stone chips flying on the statue, watching the statue finally falling to the ground in a helpless posture, without any image, the violent impact made The whole earth trembles...
From beginning to end, Yun Xiaoyao didn't say a word.
Even when he saw his son's statue being smashed to pieces, he just gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and then turned around and left.
There is a cold breath all over his body.
Fang Qingtian and others wanted to talk to him and discuss it, but Yun Xiaoyao had an attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away and just ignored him and left with an indifferent expression.
